And I bet Brazil doesn't have a Supreme Court that will decide he was allowed to commit whatever crimes he wanted.

Our supreme court is certainly bad, but not THAT bad

I hope this POS lives enough to be jailed for the heaps of crimes he commited but I'm not holding my breath, justice in Brazil is slower than a sleepy drunk snail

With the return of democracy, the Supreme Court was overbuilt (overpowered?) specially to counter abuses from the Presidency. It has it's own host of problems, but so far has kept us from going the same part as the US.
